Yellow Bird

Written by Norman Luboff, Marilyn Keith and Alan Bergman

	  		
D   Fdim      D       A7             D 
Yellow     bird, up high in banana tree 
D    Fdim      D     D  A7                   D   D7 
Yellow        bird, you sit all alone like me 
G        G/F#  Em7    D        D7M     D6 
Did your lady friend leave the nest again 
A7      Em7  A7     D       D7M     D7 
That is very  sad, makes me feel so bad 
G      G/F#   Em7 D      F#m  Bm7 
You can fly away, in the sky away  
A7          Em7    A7  D 
You're more lucky than me 
D      D7     G       Em7    A7            Em7 Gdim   D 
I also have a pretty girl  she's not with me     today 
D                D7       G       Em7 
They're all the same, the pretty girls 
A7            Gdim  A7        A7/13 A7   D 
They tend the nest, then they fly   away 
D    Fdim      D       A7               D 
Yellow    bird, up high in banana tree 
D    Fdim      D        A7                  D    D7 
Yel -  low    bird, you sit all alone like me 
G     G/F#  Em7  D      D7M   D6 
Better fly away, in the sky away 
A7      Em7  A7      D        D7M      D7 
Picker coming soon, pick from night to noon 
G         G/F#   Em7   D     D7M   D6 
Black and yellow you, like banana too  
A7        A7     A7/13  A7   D 
They might pick  you  some day 
D           D7     G      Em7    A7     Em7 Gdim  D 
Wish that I were a yellow bird I fly away with you 
D        D7    G       Em7 
But I am not a yellow bird  
A7        Gdim  A7     A7/13 A7  D 
So here I sit, nothing else to do 
D    Fdim      D         Fdim      D          Fdim      D 
Yellow       bird,   yellow       bird,   yellow      bird
